“Heroin Nation” by OTTO FM, Ryan Cassata ft. Lee out Today on All Major Streaming Apps, Lyrics below.
I’m straight sick of seeing my people dying,
They end up sleeping in the streets, their brains been out frying.
Say “oh what?” Do you think that I’m just lying?
It’s running rampant like a serial killer all across Long Island.
Like a grim reaper, it’ll fucking keep ya,
Needle in your arm deeper, jumped a pawn, beat ya, straight gone
You used to have it going on, now you’re nodding on the lawn,
and stealing from your own mom
Your hearts exploding like a bomb.
Here I am, heroin, I’ll come and get you, here I am depend on me and now you can’t defend you.
You just can’t fend [for] yourself, like I just can’t blame myself.
You got a bent silver spoon heating up in your room,
Now you’re gone to soon my brother, boy did I love ya
It’s sad we had to discover your beneath the cover,
Now it’s much to late, 16 year old in a coffin at a wake,
I hate thinking this was God’s fate to keep us all awake.
I close my eyes tonight,
I wish that I could see,
See you alive.
I close my eyes tonight,
I wish that I could see,
See you alive.
What, you don’t wanna talk about this?
I bring it up and you just want to bust my lip.
But man, this is some real deep shit, it’s dragging them out and it’s killing these kids.
Now look at Good Samaritan, it’s filling right up
There’s not even enough rooms, people be lined up.
There’s an overdose in every other bed, that hospital is a grave yard for the living dead.
Won’t you start treating them like they’re sick and not like they’re bad?
Start giving them the treatment that you wish that you had.
Maybe it’s true the governments conspiring to eliminate some people and not do the hiring.
Shouldn’t the big man be going out to save them instead of turning his back on the heroin nation?
and fuck all you doctors pushing these pills, kids are getting hooked, and all you care about is bills.
I close my eyes tonight,
I wish that I could see,
See you alive.
I close my eyes tonight,
I wish that I could see,
See you alive.
So how many kids do we have to lose?
Start at the blues, now headlining the news.
It’s a lifestyle that some don’t choose,
They’re just thrown into it, pushed on the pills, what if it’s you?
What if it’s your kid, what would you do?
Would you swap it out and trade with him no oxycontin blues?
What if it’s your kid, shaking with chills?
What if it’s your kid? oh another one killed!
I close my eyes tonight,
I wish that I could see,
See you alive.
I close my eyes tonight,
I wish that I could see,
See you alive.
I close my eyes, I close my eyes, I close my eyes,
Don’t Close Your Eyes.
